Begone Dull Care (1949) is a visual music animated film directed by Norman McLaren and Evelyn Lambart.
Using drawn-on-film animation, McLaren and Lambart paint and scratch directly onto film stock to create a visual representation of Oscar Peterson's jazz music. The film is produced by the National Film Board of Canada.
